Fresh tomatoes are one of the sweet treats of summer. I no longer have the time for a big garden but I always put in a few tomato plants. There are tomatoes tucked in with my flowers and in pots on my patio. The key is to make sure they are planted where they will get a lot of sunlight.
The tomatoes need well drained soil and daily watering. A layer of mulch will help maintain the moisture. Water daily, but don’t over water. Too much water can lead to root rot. Watching your pampered tomato plants wither and die is disheartening.
Stimulate your tomatoes into blooming by mixing two tablespoons of Epsom salt in a gallon of warm water. Use the mix to liberally soaking the soil around your plants just as they begin to flower. You will be rewarded with lots of blooms and oodles of tomatoes.
